Here's my version, took about 5 minutes to create inside the ChatGPT web interface. https://valine.github.io/vibe-coded-ant-game/

I don't know if this game was vibe coded, but it certainly could have been. Most notable thing about this post is probably that vibe coded games are good enough now to fool HN.

I see potential for speedrunning since the apples are always in the same position.

You should also mention it was made with a templating engine you created! Makes it a lot cooler as a demo!

Did you mean "across the horizontal axis only"?

Reminds me of Ant for the HP48 calculator, though I have a feeling that was way before your time ;-)

Such a cute little game; it gave me a chance to catch my breath on this busy day.

The apples seem misproportioned to the ant? Is that just me?

Level 2:

Get all apples apart from the lowest one.

I mean there's not much of a game really, but I like it for what it is. It's also cute and the controls feel surprisingly snappy. My suggestion would be to try this typical responsive meta tag so the viewport does not scroll: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Guides/Vie...

I like the big head and the smile on the ant

It should show you a nude ant when you win, like Eggman.

Dude, I didn’t really think about using GitHub pages to make games like this! Thanks for inspiring me today.

It must be a slow news day.

I’d like to name my Ant please. Anthony? Or perhaps Antoine. Or maybe even Marie Antoinette. Wow there must be like 20 names that start with Ant.
